Quinoa Burgers

YUM, YUM, YUM!!! I saw THIS recipe from CanYouStayForDinner for Quinoa Burgers, and knew right away that they would be on my table very soon. (Side note: You MUST check out this blog! Her story is so inspirational and real! I can't wait to try more of her delicious looking recipes!) Oh Quinoa, how do I love you... let me count the ways... If you aren't familiar with Quinoa (pronounced Keen-wah) read a previous post about it here. I love the stuff! I've used it for all sorts of side dishes, in soup, salads & now "burgers"! Mr. B was pretty excited about the idea of Quinoa Burgers (he's a big Quinoa fan too). I made the recipe exactly as written and they were great!! I had mine in a lettuce "bun" but for Mr. B I got some Thin Buns. One bite into it and I knew we had a winner. We both uttered several complements in between bites. In fact, he (the guy who hates leftovers and repeat meals) requested that I use the rest of the mixture for tonight's dinner. Can't beat that... one prep time, 2 dinners.

If you are a fan of Quinoa, or have yet to try it, give this one a shot. Maybe your diners will be asking for more too! Enjoy!
